ringabout 4497d89267 fixes #18238; Nested object construction can zero same memory multiple times for --mm:refc (#25834) 
fixes #18238

This pull request makes a targeted change to the object construction
logic in the `genObjConstr` procedure. The main update refines the
conditions under which memory zeroing is required during object
construction, making the behavior more accurate for different garbage
collection and destructor options.

Key logic update:

- Improved the `needsZeroMem` condition in `genObjConstr` to check for
the presence of garbage-collected references and the `optSeqDestructors`
option, instead of relying solely on the selected garbage collector and
field flags. This ensures memory is zeroed only when necessary,
potentially improving performance and correctness.


```c
T1_ = NIM_NIL;
T1_ = ((tyObject_E__uEKympBdEK4SY9anUbpNaLQ*) newObj((&NTIrefe__bJ9cSuxv8xHYxmdolQqFkUw_), sizeof(tyObject_E__uEKympBdEK4SY9anUbpNaLQ)));
nimZeroMem(((void*) ((&(*T1_).z.z.z.z))), sizeof(tyObject_A__G2lWlL9cFqoiWWwZmWqfJ9bA));
(*T1_).z.z.z.z.y = ((NI) 5);
asgnRef(((void**) ((&z1__test8_u12))), T1_);
asgnRef(((void**) ((&z2__test8_u55))), new__test8_u13());
(*z2__test8_u55).z.z.z.z.y = ((NI) 5);
T2_ = NIM_NIL;
T2_ = ((tyObject_E__uEKympBdEK4SY9anUbpNaLQ*) newObj((&NTIrefe__bJ9cSuxv8xHYxmdolQqFkUw_), sizeof(tyObject_E__uEKympBdEK4SY9anUbpNaLQ)));
asgnRef(((void**) ((&z3__test8_u56))), T2_);
(*z3__test8_u56).z.z.z.z.y = ((NI) 5);
```


The original test case has already been fixed for `ORC`, now extends it
to `refc`: if a constructor is fully initialized, it does not need a
zero-fill step

Nim Compiler

  • This directory contains the Nim compiler written in Nim.
  • Note that this code has been translated from a bootstrapping version written in Pascal.
  • So the code is not a poster child of good Nim code.

See Internals of the Nim Compiler for more information.
